We, the undersigned, Maria Alexandrovna Ulyanova, widow of an active [tatsky] councilor, and Sergey Rostislavovich Dannenberg, a nobleman, have concluded an agreement between us on the sale of an immovable estate on the following conditions:

1) I, Ulyanova, sell to Mr. Dannenberg the real estate belonging to me in the village of Alakaevka, Bogdanovskaya volost, Samara province and uyezd, in the amount of 83 1/2 dessiatinas of the specified measure, with a water mill, with buildings and with all lands for the price of eight thousand five hundred rubles (8,500 rubles).

2) The deed of trust shall be executed from October 1 to 7 (from the first to the seventh) of this year 1893 at the Samara notary Yurin, by which date the contracting parties or their attorneys undertake to appear.

3) The price shall be paid in the following manner: five hundred rubles as a deposit upon signing this contract, two thousand five hundred rubles (2,500 p.) upon execution of the bill of sale, and the remaining five thousand five hundred rubles (5,500 p.) shall be deferred for three years and five months, until March 1, 1897, on the security of the estate to be sold under the first mortgage with the condition of payment of five annual interest. This interest is paid semi-annually in advance (for the first half of the year when the mortgage is executed), with a one-month grace period, after which the mortgage can be foreclosed.

Mr. Dannenberg is entitled to make early payment of the capital debt, and interest is payable only on the balance of the debt.

4) The costs for the execution of the bill of sale and the mortgage shall be borne entirely by the buyer, Mr. Dannenberg.

5) The lease contract with Mr. Kruschwitz passes with all rights to the purchaser, who from the date of the deed of sale is entitled to the corresponding part of the rent. Upon execution of the bill of sale, Mr. Dannenberg shall receive the tenant's deposit in the amount of 137 p. 50 kopecks. The tenant Kruschwitz retains the right for winter sowing in 1893, and Mr. Dannenberg can plow one field for spring sowing in 1894.

6) When making the deed of sale, Mr. Dannenberg sends a statement to the Moscow Insurance Company that the insurance premium (for the buildings insured in the said company) - in case of fire - should go to Mr. Ulyanova in repayment of the mortgage debt.

At the end of the insurance period (in February 1894), Mr. Dannenberg is obliged to immediately insure all the buildings on the estate (farm, mill and hut) in the same amount of four thousand two hundred rubles (4,200 rubles) as they are insured now, for the period up to March 1, 1897, and to give Mr. Ulyanova the policy together with a statement to the insurance company that the insurance premium should go to repay the debt on the mortgage.

Violation of this condition entitles Ms. Ulyanova to foreclose the mortgage.

7) Mr. Dannenberg shall not depreciate the estate until the mortgage debt is paid in full; he shall not have the right to cut down the forest and demolish the buildings on the estate.

8) If Mr. Dannenberg fails to appear before October 7, 1893 (inclusive) to conclude the bill of sale, the deposit of 500 rubles shall remain in favor of Mr. Ulyanova, and if Mr. Ulyanova fails to appear, she shall pay Mr. Dannenberg a double deposit.
